What I Found
Affinity has combined Photo, Designer, and Publisher into one free unified app.
Affinity made a pretty big move: the separate Affinity apps are now rolled into one single app called Affinity. If you have used Photo, Designer, and Publisher before, the old back-and-forth between apps is the part this update is trying to clean up.
The short version: Affinity is now one app with different work areas called Studios. Vector is the Illustrator-style area, Pixel is the Photo-style area, Layout is the Publisher-style area, and there are additional Studios for things like retouching, color grading, slicing, Canva, and custom tool setups.
